Learning so much!

⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆

As a late-in-diagnosis person, I have a lot to learn. Sooo many things make sense to me now, as I learn from Kristen’s honest and open ADHD wisdom She is encouraging and realistic, with practical suggestions for how to manage our “executives that aren’t functioning” and importantly, embracing the positives of ADHD, rather than wallowing in the bad parts of the disorder.

Excellent!

I truly love this podcast. She does such a wonderful job of taking important, complex, sometimes hard to sift through research and putting it out there in an accessible and palatable way. The information is always great, the host is amazing and the guests are always interesting. If you have ADHD, if you suspect you have ADHD, if you love someone with ADHD give this a listen, you won’t regret it.

Episode #281: The Bully in Your Brain: How ADHDers Can Quiet Their Inner Critic

In this episode, we start by examining how negative self-talk, often rooted in childhood criticism and toxic relationships, affects adults with ADHD.

Episode #251: The Importance of Autonomy as an ADHD Adult

Many of us grew up in situations where we didn’t feel we had autonomy or the right to self-govern. We didn’t feel like we were in charge of our lives. So, in adulthood, we struggle to recognize that we have control over what we say yes and no to.

Episode #250: Everything On My Mind Lately

This episode is me dumping the contents of my brain for all to see (or…hear?!) including the actual meltdown I had after a crazy successful FOCUSED launch last month, why success is scarier for us ADHDers than failure, my struggle to stop overcommitting, and all the surprising things I learned from dry January.

Self-trust is hard for those of us with ADHD. If you feel alone, I encourage you to listen to this coaching call. It will help you understand yourself better. On this call, you’ll learn how to become your own (overly protective) bestie who doesn’t listen to that voice in your head.

Episode #235: The ADHDers Guide to Being Proactive (Even With a Reactive Brain)

As adults with ADHD, when there’s a stimulus our brains are naturally triggered to react. We lack impulse control, so our instinct is to respond immediately. Someone who’s proactive doesn’t act out of impulse, and they aren’t constantly putting out fires or managing other people’s issues at their own expense. How do you morph into someone proactive as an ADHDer?

Podcast Episode #234: The Unexpected Link Between Trauma & Your Messy Home

Those of us with ADHD, and even those who don’t have it, can attest to times when we aren’t sure how to feel and we argue with ourselves in our heads. Problem-solving is an essential adult function, but it can be really hard at times and we can get frozen in our indecision.

I’m diving into everything from the privilege of self-care that not everyone has available to them, forms of free and cost-associated self-care, and how to determine if your self-care is actually just avoidance.

Episode #207: Soothing the Pain of Rejection

The last episode of the rejection series is a good one on how to respond to and soothe the pain from rejection. Avoidance, people-pleasing and perfectionism are responses that many of us identify with as a way of limiting the amount of rejection in our lives. These three coping mechanisms can be replaced with productive strategies, however, which I have double the options for!

Episode #206: The Power of Therapy for Rejection Sensitivity

In part 3 of the rejection series, we talk about rejection trauma from the beautiful perspective of a therapist with ADHD, Helen Villiers. Helen explains important terms such as toxic shame, moral defense, mirroring and stonewalling. My favorite part is when Helen helps me identify why it can be so hard to not take rejection personally and why I look for mirroring in relationships.

Episode #205: Why I’m Rejecting RSD (Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria)

I get bold and honest in this episode as I challenge “expert” opinion on Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD). And honestly, I’m scared you’re going to reject me for it. I reject the idea that our ADHD itself is the genetic and neurological CAUSE of our rejection issues. No. Growing up in a world that constantly rejects us is the cause of our rejection issues.

Episode #204: A Look at Rejection Sensitivity with ADHD

From childhood to adulthood, we experience rejection in a variety of ways and learn how to respond to it. Those of us with ADHD often experience this frequently and at an early age. As a result, we tend to have heightened sensitivity to feelings of exclusion or dismissal. This episode involves a critical self-examination and reflection time to determine whether or not you may demonstrate rejection sensitivity.

Podcast Episode #203:Understanding Executive Functions – Self-Motivation

The last episode in the executive function focuses on self-motivation. The timing of this episode is perfect because taxes are due in a few weeks! You may be especially struggling with the motivation to beat that deadline, and I’m here to explain why.

Podcast Episode #196: Understanding Executive Functions – Working Memory

Working memory is a temporary storage system that allows you to hold information in your mind long enough to do something with it.

Podcast Episode #171: Should You Tell People About Your ADHD?

It can be hard to decide whether or not you should share your ADHD diagnosis with the people in your life. Is it their business to know? Will it help or hurt the relationship? This is one of the questions that we get asked most often, and so I wanted to share some tips to making the decision!
